Fully-grown adults are much larger in size than young children. what happens to the cells of the body during the growth of a child? a)the cells of a growing child divide to make more cells, and those cells are each half the size as the cells were before they divided. the cells do not grow before they divide again. b)the cells of a growing child divide to make more cells, and those cells grow to become the same size as the cells were just before they divided. c)the cells of the body of a growing child grow, but the number of cells stays the same. d)the size and number of cells in the body of a growing child stay the same

Children grow by the mitotic division of the vegetative cells in their bodies. The cells divide to make more cells that are similar both genetically and morphologically to the original cells.

Division of vegetative cells produces daughter cells that are exactly the same as parent cells. Diploid cells divide mitotically to produce diploid cells and an increase in the number of vegetative cells leads to growth in organisms.

I believe the answer to this is B.

This is because the child is growing so more cells are being produced and it is dividing.

hope this helped :) have a great day
